It’s been extremely steady all day.” This year’s election had the largest voter turnout in more than 20 years, with 68.5 per cent of eligible voters casting ballots.

A frighteningly fun time to be had at Heward haunted rink Kelly Running Observer Staff

Surrounded by darkness, you know something is there, waiting, watching. Your heart races as your eyes adjust to the lack of light. It’s a haunted house and you’re on high alert, you know something will eventually pop out and you’ll shriek in terror. But, despite all of this you know it’s just a fun frightening way to spend an evening in October.

With Hallowe’en just around the corner, the Heward Haunted Rink has been set up to provide two nights and a day of entertainment to the surrounding area. Open Friday, Oct. 23, Saturday, Oct. 24, and Sunday, Oct. 25, it’s a great way to get in the Hallowe’en spirit.

“We’re set up in the curling rink this year,” Chantelle Duxbury, President of the Heward Rec Board,

explained. “We started from scratch.

We used to set up in the other side and have to tear everything down quickly in order to get ice in for skating.

Last year we tinned the roof of the curling rink and Trevor Dayman – TD Electric – out of Arcola came and put up a new panel box and he put electricity through the whole side because this side just had power at the front.”

Setting up this year are approximately 10 volunteers and although Duxbury, who is a Hallowe’en aficionado, has planned 11 of the14 spooky haunted rooms being set up by the volunteers, three rooms are a mystery even to her right now.

From Front Page - Heward haunted rink THE LUCKIEST SIGNS THIS WEEK: CANCER, LEO AND VIRGO.

Week of October 25 to 31, 2015 ARIES Be careful with your money and try to stay within your budget as much as possible. There could be unforeseen expenses related to the home or family.

TAURUS You feel the need to keep yourself in good shape while this chilly, grey weather lasts. You join a gym in order to exercise more regularly.

GEMINI Don’t rush into any decisions. Listen to your intuition. Let yourself be guided by life’s ups and downs, and you’ll reach a successful conclusion.

CANCER Watch where you tread; you could commit a blunder that will cause quite a lot of laughter. Fortunately, it’s only your pride that’s in danger of being hurt.

LEO Time is a scarce commodity for you.

Avoid booking too many appointments on the same day; some are likely to encroach on others.

VIRGO As the days continue to get shorter, you rush to plan a trip on the spur of the moment. In addition, the full moon causes a rather particular sort of excitement.

LIBRA You’re quite sensitive this week. An event pushes you to make changes around you. Moreover, the competition woos you with better working conditions.

SCORPIO You feel like having a makeover and don’t hesitate to spoil yourself.

You’re also very skilled at negotiating some good prices or reaching agreements.

SAGITTARIUS You shoulder responsibility for all the emergencies at work. This is extremely beneficial to you in the long term, as it equips you with new tools for the rest of your career.

“Vivid Crystal from in town has one room that they’re setting up, Taurean Brigden with Herr Kutz Salon is doing one, and Jason Johnston has asked to do one,” Duxbury explained.

“We have 15 confirmed scarers for Friday and Saturday nights. Our children, who are in here helping set up all the time, asked to be scarers this year, so we’re letting them help on the Sunday. This will be the first year we let them scare and the Sunday isn’t as scary.”

Volunteers, who have to help set up in order to help scare, are from Heward, Stoughton, and Arcola this year.

“People come in and help set up and they get hooked, they want to come scare as well,” Duxbury said.

After the Heward Haunted Rink saw 616 people last year in 12 hours, they decided to expand their hours to help people find the time to enjoy the frights at the rink.

This year, on Friday and Saturday, the haunted rink will be delivering its most frightening spooks which will be open from 7 p.m. to midnight, while the Sunday afternoon between 1 p.m. and 6 p.m. will be less scary, but still a lot of fun.

“We will have a full kitchen/concession and we have a liquor licence for the night, so minors are welcome but they have to be accompanied by an adult and the Friday and Saturday nights are at the parents’ discretion because they are scarier,” Duxbury said. “The guided tour on the Sunday is less scary.”

All minors must be accompanied by an adult.

“It’s $10 a head, but bodies are free,” Duxbury laughed. So, for people 13-yearsold and older the cost of admission is $10, while for those 12-years-old and younger the cost is $5.

This year the Heward Rec Board is being assisted in facilitating the spooky adventure Staff photo by Kelly Running by the Heward Church Board who is The Heward Rink has been turned into a frightening site as the running the bar and kitchen, as well as by Heward Rec Board has transformed the curling rink into their annual the Stoughton Demolition Derby Club who Heward Haunted Rink. will be doing security at the Haunted Rink.

“We [the Heward Rec Board] couldn’t do this on our own,” Duxbury said. “The Rec Board is down in numbers this year, but we’re still making it happen and that’s because of our volunteers and other groups willing to come in and help. TD Electric, Trevor Dayman, was another one that this wouldn’t have been possible without.”

“The electrical was huge for us this year, and last year we tinned the roof of the north end of the rink. This year we plan on updating the kitchen and bathrooms if we’re able to make enough.”

For more information visit them on Facebook at Heward Parks & Rec.

CAPRICORN The full moon may test your pride in one way or another. You have the opportunity to show yourself off to advantage; make sure it’s for the right reasons.

AQUARIUS You have some small family obligations to fulfil. You may also have to stay home for part of the week to do some chores; some of them may need to be finished before winter.

PISCES You might have a lot of running around to do, and the phone won’t stop ringing. Avoid being critical of your lover or other people.

The Mac gets a new look in Arcola The MacMurray Theatre in Arcola has had a facelift. The building looks like new after a summer of work was put into the front.

The Arcola Optimists have been hard at work updating and preparing for the first movie weekend of the season at the MacMurray Theatre.

The theatre saw a makeover this year and the Optimists are excited for people to stop by and see their new look.

“We started out with a restoration of the front, we wanted to save the awning, which meant our ceiling inside had to come out and rehabilitation work done,” Glen Lawson explained. “We did quite a bit more work on the inside than planned, but it all came out really nice. We’re really happy with the look of it. We were able to save the art deco look and save the awning, it’s of course covered in stucco now which gives it a different look, but it looks good and we were able to keep the same profile as the original.”

The main contractor of the new look was Roger Meyers, while Chapman’s Electric did all of the wiring and Rod Lees helped finish the inside.

“They did a nice job, the colours work well together,” Lawson said. “We looked at salvaging the doors, but they were shot, so we got new ones and new windows as well.”

“It took a lot of the summer, there were construction delays and projects that would come up as we started working on it,” Lawson stated.

“Fortunately we have enough done, it looks completed there’s just a little more to finish on the roof, to open for the weekend.”

“The end result was well worth it. We’ve had some storms and haven’t had any water seeping inside, so we had been dealing with water damage, but I think that’s been fixed now.”

Movies will be shown on the Friday/Saturday from now until May, with the first movie held last weekend to an eager crowd.

“We’ve had lots of people calling to inquire when it would open and we have two birthday parties coming,” Lawson said of the opening weekend.

“We will take Christmas and New Years off, but we’re sending out ad mats in the mail again and we also have a website and Facebook page which will have the movies up.”

Inside the lobby, which is now more open and brighter, a new cooler and candy display have been added to spruce up the area.

“The new cooler and display were purchased because we would run out halfway through, mostly during kids movies, so we’ll be able to keep up better with that now and we also have more staff in here as well.”

This includes community volunteers and the students of the SRC at Arcola School, which make up a total of seven work crews.

“Our plans now are to have everyone enter through the one door, to line up and get through quicker,” Lawson said.

Plans for the future of the MacMurray Theatre include looking into siding and the cost of a large sign to be hung in the empty area near the top of the building.

“These plans will kind of just depend on the quotes we receive back and what we think we can afford this year,” Lawson said. “We’re also almost done the Legion Hall and we’ve begun planning for our snowmobile rally.”

The restoration and reinvigoration towards the theatre developed a few years ago.

“We were faced with closing or doing it [all the updates], so when we got the digital projector we had to keep going and improve the building as well,” Lawson explained.

The project is one that is appreciated in the community as the nearest movie theatres are approximately an hour away for many, which makes this a close-by destination for enjoying entertainment.

“We’re getting movies quickly and getting crowds,” Lawson said. “We have terrific support from the area and have been getting people from all over.”

In addition to movies, the MacMurray Theatre will be hosting Lisa Brokop, a Canadian country singer, the first weekend of December. The Optimists also plan on holding another concert in the spring as well.

The Optimists are also working towards two projects in 2016 which includes replacing the swings at the play park with more modern and safer ones. They are also planning on working with the Fire Department and seeing what kind of equipment and other needs they currently have.

Cornerstone Theatre to present “A Christmas Carol: The Real Story” this December Kelly Running Observer Staff

Cornerstone Theatre is at it again. Each year the Cornerstone Theatre takes “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens and adds a new dynamic spin to their performance. In the past it has taken on a western theme, has been true to the original, and much more.

This year the production will take place in the 21st century with the classic tale taking on a bit more humour than usual with “A Christmas Carol: The Real Story.”

“It follows the basic Dickens’ play up to a point and then we veer off considerable,” Don Carter a member of Cornerstone Theatre said. “This year we don’t have a Tiny Tim, we have an Ugly Tim, so he’s not ill or dying.”

Ugly Tim is simply unfortunate looking and this plays into the script.

“It’s set in today’s time period, but we do drift back at certain points,” Carter explained. “There’s a lot in Dickens that we haven’t used, so we’re doing some of that.

The group compiled

“We have five new voices this year and everyone has a very good voice who sings, Megan [McAuley] and Jessica [ShirleyUnwrap Christmas Early with the Opening of our Dormuth] both have lovely voices and they sing together at one point, which is just beautiful.”

Carlyle Elementary School to perform Aladdin four-and-a-half hour practices each day leading up to the big performance on Friday. The practices are broken down into two, two-hour sessions with a half an hour break each day for the students to learn their parts.

In the evening of Oct. 23 the performance will take off. Local youth will star in the full-length production lasting between 60 and 70 minutes.

MCT has been doing shows of this nature for more than 40 years and they continually instill lessons of teamwork as well as individual success through putting on various productions throughout the year.

Students have put in a lot of hard work and effort to help bring the production to life and they hope for a large turnout in their support.

Last year’s production of, Blackbeard the Pirate, went over phenomenally well with youth putting on a performance for a packed gymnasium.

Weekly RCMP report Kelly Running Observer Staff

The Carlyle RCMP dealt with 133 incidents between Friday, Oct. 9, to Thursday, Oct. 15.

911 calls There were three 911 calls received by RCMP. One was a nonemergency, the second was someone playing with the phone, while the third involved a breach of the peace being reported in the Carlyle area. In the latter incident an individual was passed out drunk in the basement of an individual’s home and the intoxicated individual was not wanted in the home.

RCMP attended and took the intoxicated person to their home.

Assault An assault in Arcola is currently under investigation.

There was an assault with a weapon in Carlyle. The bar fight led to two individuals, a 22-year-old male and a 27-year-old male, being charged. They will appear in court for the offence.

Quote of the Week . . .

“Those who stand for nothing fall for everything.”

- Alexander Hamilton

Politicians are like magicians

Well I’ve been annoyed to the point of needing to voice my opinions. Again we’re going political here, agree or disagree, these are simply my thoughts and since we live in Canada we all have the freedom to voice them.

Now the election’s over, but maybe next time they can touch on actual issues.

Kelly Running The one thing that has anObserver Staff noyed me to no end during this election is the focus on the niqab. The niqab is a clothing item worn mostly by Muslim women in public areas. There are a variety of clothing items that Muslim women wear for head coverings, but the niqab covers a person’s face completely, save for their eyes. Variations include the hijab which are head scarves that cover one’s hair or a burqa which covers a woman’s body from head to toe.

This election, however, has made the topic of the niqab a bigger deal than I think it actually is.

A classic magician move, look here while I do this over here. They’ve completely blown the issue out of proportion which has actually turned into, what I think of, as fear-mongering – the use of fear to influence the opinions and actions of others towards some specific end.

The idea of telling me that a niqab is dangerous, that you don’t know who is under it, and that women should be banned from wearing it while saying a citizenship oath is ridiculous. Obviously someone along the way would have had to verify who that person is before they’ve taken their oath and I’m pretty sure those taking the oath with the niqab would understand why they had to be verified before going into the ceremony. But, it can be done in a way that doesn’t infringe upon their rights and freedoms can it not?

The niqab has in fact become a main focus for the election and the tactics surrounding the fearmongering are what have annoyed me.

The niqab is a non-issue, but it has become a great tactic to drum up support, create fear and tell the country you’re the only one willing to make the change.

In Canada veiled women have always been allowed to take the citizenship oath, so long as female citizenship officials are able to verify who that person is before the ceremony.

It’s therefore not just anyone wearing the niqab who is taking the oath. They’ve been verified before they take the oath; it’s not just some random person under there. They’ve been through extensive background checks and verifications, why would the government let someone take the oath if they weren’t sure they were going to make a good Canadian citizen?

Since 2011 a total of two women have chosen to wear the niqab during the citizenship ceremony.

TWO out of over 650,000 immigrants that have become Canadian citizens in the last four years wore the niqab.

To me this is a non-issue. What is it really accomplishing other than making those women who choose to wear the niqab feel uncomfortable and violated, yes violated because they grew up with the belief that they must be covered in public places. If they’re verified in a private setting, which is something that is done and which any reasonable person would understand, then by all means wear it during the ceremony. If you refuse to have your identity verified before in a private setting with a female officer, then you won’t get to take part in the ceremony and become a Canadian citizen, probably for good reason.

So next time dear political leaders vying to become Prime Minister tell me what you’re party is actually going to do in the next four years that will have a tangible impact on my life as a Canadian because I don’t feel like this was a worthy topic of discussion.

I went for a walk and...

I walked to the post office today. Impressed? Not likely.

People do it everyday. But it was kind of a big deal for me because it was the first time in many weeks I could do it.

In July I tore a tendon in my right knee and since then have needed to limit my pedestrian activities. The injury was a small one and I was determined to do everything the doctor asked of Shelley Luedtke me to speed up recovery. It was inconvenient, sometimes rather painful, but nothing to get too worked up about.

The regret for me was that I didn’t have a good story to go with it. As people saw me hobbling along with a brace they were curious to find out what had happened. Oh how I wish I had been able to regale them with a story of adventure. I couldn’t though because I had no such tale. The tendon tore while I was…walking.

The rest of the summer and early fall ended up looking a bit different (although it’s not like I had marathon training to put on the back burner or anything), yet my activities did have to change a bit. I am thrilled that the healing process occurred pretty much the way the doctor said it would and so today I walked to the post office. It felt good--good to be on the knee again, good to be walking outside, good to be doing something I had been relying on others to do.

I had my tonsils removed the summer I turned 10. A few days after the surgery my 6-year old sister and I were playing Yahtzee. On one of my turns I hit a lucky combination of numbers and got five 5’s. Unable to celebrate with a loud scream because of my sore throat I hurriedly gestured to my little sister who took up my cause and began shouting “Yahtzee, Yahtzee” for me.

news network suddenly becomes far less entertaining than it once was. The hours you craved in the spring to sit and read are not nearly as appealing.

The urge to go for a walk is huge when just weeks earlier the desire to be able to sit and do nothing was compelling.

There may be things we think we want, but perhaps what we already have is even more important. I wanted more time to read. I got it, and realized there are other things I wanted to do, too.

Perhaps it’s that childlike impulse that causes us to want what we can’t have in the moment. What we wanted…we now have…and what we now have…we don’t want any longer. Or perhaps there is more.

We don’t want to get left behind or miss out on anything. Despite our belief that we are great multitaskers the fact remains that although we can have a lot of things on the go--only one can benefit from our focus at any one time. So we are left wondering what we might be missing. But in being concerned about what we are missing we fail to see what is occurring right now.

I looked for things I hadn’t done in a while. I challenged some difficult sudoku puzzles. I found a new series on Netflix that became a favourite. I watched the stunning sunset from my living room window. And I learned, once again, how fortunate I am to have the husband and family I do. They took care of everything. And sometimes…you have to let people do that. There are times--many times-things would be easier if we were willing to let someone help us do the heavy lifting, take care of some of the details, or speak (or shout) in celebration or solidarity.

My life didn’t change because of a little injury.

I discovered the joy in some things I had put aside because I was “too busy.” Those things have once again become part of my life. The question I am left with is this: what would be the skill, ability or activity that would be the toughest to lose tomorrow?

Whatever comes to mind might give us a hint into exactly what we need to be doing more of today.

That’s my outlook.

Seeing things differently . . .

Black and orange Black and orange spirit day: why? spirit day a good Lynne Bell as far as other, deeper, concerns, families often find their own ways of handling things-especially since alternative they know the privilege of putting kids in public Observer Staff

Kelly Running Observer Staff

Well with Hallowe’en coming up Lynne and I thought a themed debate was in order. As we tried thinking about a topic to address surrounding Hallowe’en we remembered that schools have begun hosting a black and orange spirit day as opposed to a Hallowe’en spirit day which allows youth to dress up in their costumes. Now many schools encourage students to simply dress in orange and black when coming to school.

Now whether I agree with this or not, I’m here to argue for black and orange spirit days.

So, how did this topic ever come to be in schools anyway? Inclusiveness. School administration along with School Community Councils began discussing ways to make spirit days accessible to anyone and Hallowe’en was therefore something they needed to revamp.

In 2012, a principal at a school in Cambridge, ON, said “We wanted to make sure that no students felt that it was required of them to come to school with a costume. This is a conversation that has been happening with parent council over a number of years around being as inclusive as we can be in the school community.”

The discussion surrounding the switch from Hallowe’en to black and orange day developed as early as 2005, from what my research showed.

The schools’ discussions pointed to multi-cultural reasons for the change to a black and orange spirit day, but it also developed because of socioeconomic reasons as well with parents unable to afford a costume.

The peer and social pressure that comes with having to find the perfect costume can be trying on kids.

There are other reasons that schools have pointed to black and orange days over Hallowe’en as well.

They point to it being offensive to Wiccan students as Hallowe’en is a religious day of significance to Wiccans and it needs to be respected.

Additionally because it’s a religious day for some it should not be celebrated in a non-denominational school.

It goes against many religious practices and is rooted in paganism. It is a holiday or “holy day” that has been maintained by some western cultures despite it being a pagan holy day.

As the cultural mosaic of Canada changes Hallowe’en treats conflict with family diets. At Hallowe’en who gives out kosher, halal, or vegan treats? I’m thinking not many although they do make nut free candies to hand out.

Oftentimes scary symbols focused on violence are celebrated at Hallowe’en which can be traumatizing for children. People scaring each other or dressing in realistic psycho murderer costumes can give kids nightmares and make a fun day of dress up into something traumatizing instead.

Students new to Canada find the practice very confusing and don’t understand why people dress up and go trick or treating on Hallowe’en; in fact I’m sure most kids don’t know why they get to dress up and go trick or treating it’s just something they do.

So, taking Hallowe’en out of schools is therefore a reasonable thing to do in favour of a black and orange spirit day. Hallowe’en can be celebrated outside of the school and as always those participating can keep their lights on and Hallowe’en decorations up to invite youth to trick or treat there.

Editor’s Note . . .

The views expressed in “Seeing things differently” are for discussion purposes and are not necessarily the views of the writers.

I first learned of “Black and Orange Spirit Day” from my youthful editor. Not only did she come up with the topic of this week’s showdown; she showed my middle-aged self mercy and allowed me to defend Halloween celebrations in schools instead of this more recent, watered-down substitute, and by doing so, assured me I would win this one.

After perusing the research Kelly kindly supplied me with, I’m inclined to agree with her. But first, a disclaimer: I no longer have much skin in the Halloween game. My grown-up kids are well past it and so am I. I like seeing people have funespecially little people in costumes. But that’s about it.

I don’t like horror flicks, gore, gruesome stuff and by mid-October, even autumn orange is starting to seem overdone. However, even taking my low October expectations into account, “Black and Orange Spirit Day” is a pretty sad excuse for a school celebration.

At first, I thought B&OS Day was a joke or a parody, but some schools in Canada have embraced it. (And no, I didn’t check with any schools in this area, because the staff and students at every one of them have been wonderful to me, so I wanted to leave them out of this rant....But I digress...).

According to a teacher resource book used by the Toronto District School Board, arguments replacing school Halloween celebrations with B&OS Day are as follows: Halloween is offensive to Wiccans. As my editor points out- “What is the Wiccan population in Canada?” And did the school board in question ever ask them for their thoughts? I have a Wiccan friend (Hello, Julie from Portland!) and she loves trick-ortreaters coming to her door, so if this is a concern, it’s certainly worth further investigation, rather than making assumptions that might not have any merit.

Halloween peer and social pressure is a problem. This is certainly a potential problem. But Halloween costumes can be done on a budget. And

Through the Lens Moose Mountain Photography Club

schools allow students to be exposed to all kinds of different people with diverse beliefs and ideas. I knew a family at my kids’ school who didn’t celebrate Halloween for religious reasons. They were fundamentalist Christians who quietly pulled their kids out of school for Halloween and had some extra family time, instead. They said they saw it as a win-win and added that they used it as a teaching tool as far as helping their kids live out their faith within a secular setting.

Halloween imagery is at odds with some religious practices. As Kelly pointed out to me, modern Halloween is really rooted in fun and giving it deeper spiritual significance is often a case of looking for trouble where there is none.

Halloween products can conflict with family diets. Uh huh. I suspect edible Halloween products conflict with every family diet in the entire country.

(Finally, we agree on something!). But seriously, school celebrations don’t have to feature food; dressing up and games could easily be the focus in a classroom setting.

Halloween symbols of violence can inflict trauma on children. I agree with this one, but I also think schools-especially elementary schools- can set and enforce reasonable standards for costumes that are worn at school celebrations.

Students new to Canada have no cultural knowledge of trick-or-treating. Then this is a great, welcoming way for them to learn about a distinctly non-religious Canadian tradition.

In my humble (and freshly-formed) opinion, Black and Orange Spirit Day is almost worse than schools doing nothing to celebrate Halloween.

It’s a watered-down attempt to make a celebration palatable for everyone, which is impossible, really.

Schools should either embrace Halloween (within school parameters) or do nothing. However well-intentioned, Black and Orange Spirit Day is, in a word, lame.

Now, I’m off to ask my editor if young people still say that...And in the meantime, I wish you all a happy and safe Halloween!

It is not the beauty of a building you should look at; its the construction of the foundation that will stand the test of time.

Carlyle Skating Club welcomes new CanSkate coaches Kelly Running Observer Staff

The Carlyle Skating Club is welcoming two new CanSkate coaches this year. These coaches include Taylor Hengen of Arcola and Halle Doty of Carlyle.

Hengen has been skating since she was two-years-old, which gives her 16 years experience on the ice.

“I was a Program Assistant for four years and was helping out,” Hengen explained. “My mom coached skating so I had an idea of what it was about and I really enjoy working with little kids.”

“When I was in CanSkate all of the older girls were Program Assistants and we all loved them, they were amazing to me, and it was just something I always wanted to do.”

The path from assisting to coaching was a natural one for Hengen who is going into her third year coaching.

“I’ve been coaching in Lampman and Arcola, and this year I’ll be starting in Carlyle,” she explained.

Hengen enjoys working with the young participants, “They’re lots of fun and silly, they don’t care what people think of them and always want to have a good time while they’re learning,” she said.

She is excited for the year and to get to teach a new group of kids in Carlyle as she’s been working with those in Lampman and Arcola for awhile now, but is looking

forward to filling her winter with skating.

Doty has been skating since she was about three or four-years-old, which gives her 13 years experience on the ice with six of those as a Program Assistant.

“I’ve always really liked working with little kids and teaching them what I had learned,” Doty said.

“Becoming a coach is a lot of work, I’ve been preparing for it for awhile and go for three full 12 hour days to be certified. I like the course because it’s a great way to gain more knowledge and become better at evaluating the kids’ learning.”

“We have everything prepped for CanSkate and I think we’re as ready as we can be.”

Doty added her favourite part of working in the Can Skate program is to see kids improve.

“It’s great to see them work at something and come back with what they’ve improved on since the last time,” Doty stated.

Doty is looking forward to the year: “I’ve had other jobs before, but I think this is so exciting because I’ve worked so hard for this.”

CanSkate classes begin on Monday, Oct. 26, and currently there are 17 CanSkaters signed up.

“We have a lot of new kids who haven’t skated before, who won’t really be able to stand on skates, so I’m really excited to see them learn, and we also have a few that are almost at the StarSkate level, so being able to help them achieve that will is exciting,” Doty stated.

It’s Brett Smith’s team now

Rider Insider

By Rod Pedersen That much was made clear last Wednesday when the Saskatchewan Roughriders shipped 36year old quarterback Kevin Glenn to the Montreal Alouettes on the CFL’s annual trade deadline.

Before the day was over, the Riders dealt leading rusher Jerome Messam to the Calgary Stampeders as well.

What they ended up with in return were Canadian kicker Tyler Crapigna and a third round pick in the 2016 CFL Draft.

The moves were a clear sign that the Riders are scrapping 2015 and entering a rebuild which only they know how long will last. At 2-13, you’d think

most fans would understand the direction of the team needs to change and in a poll at rodpedersen. com, 70% of respondents said they’d support that rebuild.

However there are other corners of the Rider Nation which were incensed with the moves. “How could they trade Messam, the only bright spot on this team?” one guy screamed right in my face.

Others huffed, “How could they trade Messam for a kicker?”

Going by fan reaction, none were too upset to see Kevin Glenn go. He was brought in as insurance in the event of an injury to Darian Durant but in the last two games – both of them mustwin – he came up empty. In the case of Messam however, the 31-year old Canadian running back was leading the polls to be named the Riders’ Most Outstanding Player this year.

Now both are gone. But the fact is both Messam and Glenn were due to become free agents this February and if General Manager Jeremy O’Day hadn’t traded them now, it was likely those players would be gone and Saskatchewan would’ve wound up with nothing.

So enter Brett Smith. Again.

Kids making names for themselves

By Bruce Penton Little-known names in sports that you may soon be hearing plenty about: — Harold Varner III could likely lay claim to being the best AfricanAmerican player on the PGA Tour. There’s this other guy, Tiger Woods, who also plays a bit, but he’s currently on the injured list and his arrow is pointing down. Varner III, a PGA Tour rookie, sits in the mid-400s on the world-ranking list, but his arrow points straight up.

— Connor McDavid and Jack Eichel got all the pre-season buzz, but there are two other kids — one in Detroit; one in Arizona — spinning great early-season tales.

Detroit’s star is Dylan Larkin. Drafted 15th overall in 2014, Larkin is currently playing on the Wings top line with Henrik Zetterberg and Justin Abdelkader. With six points in his first five games, Larkin’s name is definitely in the mix for rookie of the year. In Arizona, Anthony Duclair, whom the Coyotes picked up from the Rangers in the deal last year for allstar defenceman Keith Yandle, had four goals and six points in his first four games.

— High schooler Jamal Murray from Kitchener, Ont., is reportedly the next great basketball player out of Canada, which is gaining — more like ‘has gained’ — a reputation as a basketball hotbed. Some people put it down to

the influence Vince Carter had when he starred for the Raptors from 1998-2004 and turned a lot of innercity kids into ballin’ , dribblin’ slam-dunkers like kids their age from the Bronx. Ontario’s Anthony Bennett went No. 1 in the NBA draft in 2013 and fellow Ontarion Andrew Wiggins went No. 1 in 2014. Now Murray, a freshman at NCAA power Kentucky, is waiting for his chance.

At least Canada’s basketball medal chances in the Olympics are getting more real every year.

— It’s almost unfair, but the Chicago Cubs have three of the most talented youngsters in baseball. They’re so good, they’re well past the ‘unknown’ stage. In Kris Bryant, Anthony Rizzo and Kyle Schwarber, the Cubs have a power-hitting trio in the middle of the lineup for the next five or six years that will rival numbers this year’s Blue Jays or the 1927 Yankees ever put up. You may get to watch the Cubs in this year’s World Series

and it’s pretty safe to say that if the Cubbies still have to “wait till next year,” their year is definitely coming. And soon! Rizzo, Bryant and Schwarber — the latter two raw rookies — combined for 73 homers and 243 RBI. That home-run total was two more than their combined ages.

• Brad Dickson of the Omaha World-Herald, on a poll ranking NFL stadiums’ cheapest beer: “According to the ranking, the Cincinnati Bengals have the cheapest beer in the NFL. This makes Cincinnati the most affordable place in America to get drunk, remove your shirt and paint a letter on your chest in 10 degree weather.”

• Humourist Steve Burgess on Facebook: “Following Playboy’s lead, Hustler magazine will now feature only pictures of Pete Rose.”

• Norman Chad of the Washington Post: “I tried to do the right thing in the offseason, no longer calling my hometown

team the ‘Washington R-dsk-ns’ but rather the ‘Washington Snyders.’

But it turns out ‘Snyder’ is an offensive term used to disparage, denigrate and desecrate greedy, tone-deaf, outof-touch billionaire businessmen.”

• Headline at SportsPickle. com: “Cubs’ 105year rebuilding plan beginning to bear fruit.”

• Joe Posnanski of NBC Sports, about the weird seventh inning of the Blue Jays-Texas game where Rougned Odor scored after Jays’ catcher Russell Martin’s throw back to the pitcher glanced off the bat of Shin-Soo Choo: “At that point it looked like the Texas Rangers were going to win the series based on this insane play and then Canada was going to invade America.”

• Brad Dickson again: “As of right now, the Chicago Cubs are the favourite to win the World Series. The last time that sentence appeared in print, there was a blacksmith shop across from the stadium.”

Thank You

The 23-year old rookie Rider quarterback was pressed into service in late-July when both Durant and Glenn went down and he produced mixed results, at best. He went 1-5 as a starter and was the CFL’s most-sacked quarterback, being taken down on 14% of his plays.

And yet, the fans loved him. I wasn’t sure why, because I was convinced he wasn’t even going to make it out of rookie camp however he fought and fought back in June and made the team. I’ve asked some Rider fans what they love about him and the answer is always, “His fire! I love his compete and the way he plays with fire!”

That’s one thing I’ve learned from years and years of covering sports in Saskatchewan and in Regina in particular: you don’t always have to win but you sure as heck better give it your all each and every time you step on the field or onto the ice. Otherwise these fans will turn on you in a jiffy.

But Brett Smith is always going to give you 100% effort. And just who is he?

Well, as mentioned, he’s a 23-year old Godfearing young man who was raised in Salem, Oregon (where his Dad played college football and married a local gal). The younger Smith played his college football at the University of Wyoming and had pro football stints in Tampa Bay and Toronto.

He lives in Dallas now and spends his free time, fishing, shooting guns and driving his truck. That may give you another idea why he’s so beloved in the Wheat Province. Brett almost gave up on football before the Riders called him this spring and offered a tryout.

That love he’s earned from Rider fans will only go so far if Smith doesn’t start to show he’s capable of being the “Next Darian Durant”. The Riders have three games left in the regular season, the first of which is this Saturday at home against Edmonton, and Smith is expected to get the start.

We’ll also likely get to see rookie pivots Keith Price and Hutson Mason as well, if not on Saturday then over the next few games before this season concludes. That’s right – if you’re paying attention – the only other quarterbacks the Roughriders have behind the injured Darian Durant are rookies. Brett Smith is the only one who’s taken a CFL snap.

Personally, it makes me want to toss my lunch. Just with nerves, that’s all. What if Durant’s not recovered in time to start next season? What about the fact the Riders have never won a Grey Cup without two quarterbacks capable of starting and winning games?

However GM O’Day seems undeterred. In fact he seems more confident now than ever.

So we all just need to follow.

That’s what leadership is all about.

The View from the desk of the CEO - Marga Cugnet – Partners with Sun Country Health Region

15104OB2

15104TS1

One of the pictures in the latest issue of the Sun Country Health Region’s Regional Sun shows people gathered for a celebration of the Estevan Community Garden this summer. (The Regional Sun will be distributed through your local newspaper soon.)

Sun Country Health Region has partnered with the Estevan Community Garden Committee to help create and maintain a space where community members can grow healthy food, be physically active and build networks of friendship.

Subsequently, the garden’s organization has also entered into a partnership with the Kinesiology Department at the University of Regina to participate in research into the social isolation that often accompanies aging, a subject of critical importance in our Region.

This is one example of the kind of partnership that Sun Country Health Region thrives on.

We have enjoyed many similar partnerships with communities for many years.

Recently, we partnered with the Kipling District Health Foundation, the Redvers and District Community Health Foundation, and the Radville and District Health Centre Foundation to build new facilities, or a long term care wing. We partnered with the Redvers foundation to work on the successful re-opening of the acute care wing at Redvers Health Centre. We worked with the Wawota community to find a solution for physician coverage. We’re working with the Fillmore community for health services. We continue to work with the Coronach community and Five Hills Health Region to provide services. We’ve successfully opened eight new primary health care sites in recent years and continue to work closely with those communities to ensure the services are targeted to identified health needs. We partner regularly with schools in the Region by providing support in creating and implementing healthy food policies, sharing nutrition information with educators and families, and providing child immunization. We want to strengthen our partnership with First Nations bands in our Region to ensure health services are available. We partner with urban and rural municipal officials to discuss health care issues regularly. We partner with police and social agencies to re-direct young people away from crime. We’ve worked with St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation in Estevan to get a CT scan for the Region.

The list is almost endless.

All of these joint endeavours bring value to both Sun Country Health Region, to the community organizations and to residents. Each party learns more about its partner’s needs by participating in discussions and activities. The whole community becomes stronger and more cohesive as we break down misconceptions and mistrust and learn how to work together.

We all want to make a positive impact on our communities in our own way. By working together, we can multiply the impact. We can use the particular expertise we all bring to the table to enrich the lives of our communities and add value to individual lives. These collaborations and partnerships with one another make Sun Country Health Region a better place to live.

Individually, we are one drop.

Together, we are an ocean.

(L-r) Dolores Cutler, Shirley Bryant and Shirley Pirlot of Carlyle pause for a picture at their Green Is the Colour table.

“It’s a really great fundraiser,” says Cutler. “And of course, we’re forgiving the Riders this year and hoping for the best next year!”

Karla Pearson of White Bear Lake is pictured at the “Dollar Store Bride” table she created with Carlyle’s Dawn Faber. Pearson told The Observer before the event: “My mom is battling cancer. She got some wonderful news. And this is my way of saying Thank you.” I do this as a tribute to her.”

Laura Dunn’s Ugly Christmas table had a glint of the Griswolds about it. However, Dunn is serious when she talks about the reason for this evening’s season. “My husband Wayne is a cancer survivor,” she says. “And you realize very quickly you can’t get through this without your friends. Doing this table and having some of our friends who helped us so much is our way of trying to thank them for being there for us.”

Dunn (back row, right) is surrounded by friends Tara Bendtsen, Erika Easton, Vanessa Kirkpatrick, Tammy Riddell, Tanya Robertson and Jolyn Schultz.

Bev Grimes (left) and Colleen Fornwald (right) of Arcola are pictured at one of four tables the women decorated. “This is our Blue Heron table and we also did a Barbie-themed table, a Starfish table and a Vineyard table,” says Grimes. As

a member of the Moose Mountain Health Care Recruitment Committee, Grimes is an active supporter of Creative Tables for Cancer and says, “We all are working for something we believe in, which is quality health care-including acute and emergency care-in this area.”

In its eighth year, Darlene Olsen’s Creative Tables for Cancer fundraisers have raised over $400,000 for the “Look Good, Feel Better” program and more recently, local health recruitment programs. This year’s event attracted women from throughout southeast Saskatchewan who filled 42 extravagantly-themed tables at Arcola’s Prairie Place Hall.

This year, Olsen was joined by Sherry Abbott, Executive Director of the Canadian Cosmetic, Toiletry and Fragrance Association Foundation and Dawn Gerry of the Mary Kay Ash Charitable Foundation, Canada. They were joined by a few of Foam Lake’s “Breast Friends” charity cookbook authors-Nat Dunlop, Jean Johnson, Linda Helgason, Val Helgason and Anne Reynolds, who donated over 400 cookbooks for the event.

Alicia Brown of Carlyle’s New Dimensions Hair Studio says: “This all goes to a good cause.

Our family has been touched by cancer.” The Alice In Wonderland-themed table is one of two tables the salon sponsored.

Pictured (l-r) are: Brooke Catley, Marla Barsmess and Alicia Brown.

Daily wine and a season of thanksgiving

TAX ENFORCEMENT LIST

Note:

Friday, October 23, 2015

caught pass after pass and ran right through the defensive line.

The coach offered him a signing bonus on the spot. «Forget the bonus,» the turkey said, «All I want to know is, does the season go past Thanksgiving Day?» We are in the season of thanksgiving, and in the U. S. this season is celebrated in November and merges into Christmas shopping. So much to be thankful for! But what keeps us from the true attitude of grace and thanksgiving?

I believe in the sun even when it isn›t shining.

I believe in love even when I do not feel it.

I believe in God even when he is silent.

These words were found scrawled on a cellar wall where Jews had hidden in World War II in Cologne, Germany. In the very midst of the horror of war, someone declared their faith in a God who does not always answer us as we wish.

Living a life of gratitude for all God’s blessings may take effort and faith. At times we are not up for the challenge, given our tendency to see negative situations around us. But it is up to us! “The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves” ( Shakespeare’s Julius

Caesar I, ii, 140).

What keeps us from striving for the gold?

Why are we not the best we can be? Our role in the Kingdom is one that no one else can do. No one else is in our place and no one else can do what we can do, with God’s Grace.

Methodist John Wesley shared this philosophy: Make all you can Save all you can Give all you can Wesley made over thirty million dollars in his life time but died with nothing. You could say there was a method to his life plan.

In “The Blessing of Unanswered Prayers” by an Unknown Confederate soldier we hear these thoughts.

I asked for strength that I might achieve; I was made weak that I might learn humbly to obey.

I asked for health that I might do greater things;

I was given infirmity that I might do better things.

I asked for riches that I might be happy; I was given poverty that I might be wise.

I asked for power that I might have the praise of men; I was given weakness that I might feel the need of God. I asked for all things that I might enjoy life; I was given life that I might enjoy all things.

I got nothing that I had asked for, but eveything that I had hoped for.

Almost despite myself my unspoken prayers were answered; I am, among all men, most richly blessed.

If we walk in God’s love and Grace, it is hard not to be grateful.

If we use our senses to enjoy the Creator’s gifts, then: Every day we can drink life’s wine And every day we can feel fine.

Going home

By Linda Wegner Two of my family moved this weekend; one I knew fairly well, the other I don’t recall meeting.

This particular morning started out like most Sunday mornings. I got up early to walk the track and after arriving back at the house, I showered, got dressed for church then headed upstairs for a cup of tea and some quiet time before we left. On the way to the kitchen I turned on my computer and scanned my Inbox; there was just one email.

The message read: “We received word that…Rev. Bill McFadden, pastor of the Mission Christian Fellowship in Mission BC, was tragically killed in a motorcycle accident yesterday afternoon. Please pray for Bill’s wife, their extended family, and the church family in Mission as they grieve their loss.”

If I ever met Bill it would have been at a church conference since we both held credentials in the same Christian fellowship. The other thing that united us was our relationship as “brother and sister through faith” in the Lord Jesus Christ. I don’t know the details of his death but it shook me to the core.

Rick Gratian passed away this morning. We’d arrived at church and were in the middle of the song service when his sister-in-law hurried down the aisle, tapped her mother on the shoulder then quickly and quietly led a significant contingent of the congregation out of the building. Theirs is a large family. The rest of us were sure we knew what was happening: after a nine year battle with brain cancer, Rick was going home. I wept, partly from sorrow but partly from relief that his suffering was nearly over.

They’re both home now: Bill, meet Rick; Rick, this is Bill.

“Eye has not seen nor ear heard…the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”

Another gorgeous week has gone by, everyone I’m sure has been enjoying it. Lots of outdoor work and activity has probably been done, maybe even completed. I know I’ve finished up the garden and put away the produce and all the utensils that were out there. The lawn may have received its last cutting; flower pots cleaned out and ready to be put into storage and lawn ornaments also put away now it’s the flower beds turn to be clean up shortly and the rose bushes to be prepared for winter. Time sure has a way of keeping one busy.

Speaking of roses mine are still blooming strongly and is something to be enjoyed until Mr. J Frost decides that enough is enough and really finishes the flowers off, then it’ll be my turn to bundle them up for the winter.

Guess there hasn’t been much visiting done since the Thanksgiving weekend, so news is very scant – no calls etc. Oh well guess one has to have a break from company or being on the go. We (Gray and I) and Faye Walker attended the fall supper at Bellegarde on Sunday, October 18. And as usual the food was delicious and plentiful – great job done folks really enjoyed it. Hopefully see you again next year.

This is Monday, October-19 – Voting Day – hopefully most of you were able to do your thing

and mark the ballet for the person of your choice.

It will be interesting to see what the outcome will be.

Time for another couple of “How children perceive the Grandparents: (11) When my grandson asked me how old I was, I teasingly replies. “I’m not sure.” “Look in your underwear, Grandpa,” he advised “Mine says I’m 4 to 6.” ….

(12) A second grader came home from school and said to her grandmother. “Grandma, guess what? We learned how to make babies today.”

The grandmother, more than a little surprised, tried to keep her cool. “That’s interesting.” She said …”How do you make babies?” “It’s simple,” replied the girl. “You just change ‘y’ to ‘I’ and add ‘es.’ That’s it for this time – hope you enjoy these little jokes. The last installment will be next week.

Just a reminder to ask that you please call me (306-443-2496), text (306-485-8561) or e-mail (g.cowan@sasktel.net) with you news.

I appreciate your input. Also don’t forget the Harvest ‘Whined’ up Supper. Hope to see you there.

They were able to come into close contact with many of the herds, and met some wonderful people. They were particularly pleased to meet Mr Dayton Hyde, founder of this Sanctuary, and author of several books.

Kevin Zimmerman shared this note with friends: Dana Kellen passed away peacefully and in the presence of his family after a courageous battle with cancer Oct. 17th. (Dana drove the mail truck from Regina to Maryfield for 27 years in our area and only missed two trips. In the early years he was escorted by the police because of stormy weather, a very dedicated man to this work). There will be a come and go tea at the Vibank Centennial Hall on Sat., Oct 24th from 1 - 4 pm.

Friday, Oct. 16th the Kennedy Old time dance club had their monthly dance with a few more people attending, everyone enjoyed the evening, 50/50 winners were Kate Smyth and Adeline Markel. Keep in mind everyone is welcome to attend Friday, Nov. 13th.

The Kennedy Hall board held the October Fest on Oct. 17. The rodeo Association sponsored the D.J. music and the Fire Brigade took care of the bar for the cabaret, the evening was very successful, 12 different organizations supplied 18 different items on the menu.

Kennedy. Thanks Morgan for your report and I am very pleased to hear there is such a great interest in 4 H. Oct. 18th was a busy day for the Kennedy C.W.L. beginning with the mass at 11:00 am followed by a lunch at the Kennedy Friendship center when members of the Esterhazy Regional C.W.L. joined Kennedy for their miniconvention. Nineteen ladies and our spiritual leader Father Hector Seville attended the meeting. Guest speakers were from the Archdiocese of Regina the workshop was taken from the National Catholic Women’s League Program ìSíMores.

The workshop was meant to be a summary of the entire work Evangelii Gaudium. The intention of the workshop is to take a few themes from the Pope’s exhortations and reflect upon these themes as individuals, in terms of the C.W.L. objects of the League. Suzanne Eisler of Wawota brought some little dresses and shorts, displaying them and speaking about how the ladies at Wawota get together to make these for Little Dresses for Africa in total they have been able to send 1131 dresses and 429 pair of shorts, girls underwear, receiving blankets to Mexico, Peru, South Africa, Haiti, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Dominican Republic, Biofo Africa, Philippines and Northern Sask. during the fires. These ladies aim to send these to Orphanages and Operation Christmas Child. They have all been delivered by kind people taking them when they travel to third world countries. (I understand there are more ladies getting involved with similar work throughout the C.W.L. organizations). The afternoon closed with a few door prize draws.

Winners were Ann Dumonceaux, Doreen Gardner, Terry Berglund, Janette Rieger Archdiocesan Regina, Olga Dutka of Langenburg.

Following the workshop a short meeting was held with the Regional committee. The next meeting will be in the spring of 2016 at Churchbridge.

Maree and Don Lawrence went to Australia for a 3Ω-week visit, they spent time with their son Carter who is attending University and attended her parent’s 50th wedding anniversary and a brother’s wedding.

Agriculture in the headines

By Calvin Daniels While much of television is little more than mindless dribble, there are shows which do hit upon themes taken from the headlines.

One example is a number of drama series which have highlighted the possible dangers which could be associated with drones. While the potential of drones in agriculture is rather broad, there are concerns over spying and the potential they have for carrying bombs.

I mention this because often shows which do pay attention to headlines in search of show themes reflect concerns out there.

An example more closely tied to agriculture would have been the season three episode of CBS’ Elementary entitled ‘Bee Collapse’.

The episode, which aired this past season certainly delved into a theme taken right from the headlines as there was definite concern about hive Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD).

CCD is the phenomenon which occurs when the majority of worker bees in a colony disappear and leave behind a queen, plenty of food and a few nurse bees to care for the remaining immature bees and the queen.

Such disappearances have occurred throughout the history of apiculture, and were known by various names but the syndrome was renamed colony collapse disorder in late 2006 in conjunction with a drastic rise in the number of disappearances of western honeybee colonies in North America.

Recently a lot of speculation has surrounded a recently introduced family of pesticides called neonicotinoids as having caused CCD, and that was part of the Sherlock Holmes-based series episode.

To the show’s credit the writers did not go for sensationalism, with strong references that the cause

of the problem was definitively determined.

Beyond that though, the agriculture issue was still front and centre in the episode.

And, it was of interest last week when the popular series Blacklist had as the primary plot thread the potential to unleash a disease targeting GMO corn, and how that might well cause a world food shortage and panic, it was at the very least thought-provoking.

Now as shows go, this one tended to paint a rather stark picture. A company involved in developing GMO corm was behind the threat.

The company’s angle was rather devious and interesting. It wanted to create the disaster then arrive on the scene with a resistance variety to save the day, of course selling their new variety at higher prices.

Is the science at a point where the storyline is possible?

That is a good question, one I am not qualified to answer.

But, if I was a betting man, as they say, I would anticipate if the science is not there today, it is probably only a matter of time, a rather short time I suspect, before it will be.

The potential of GMO to herald in larger yields, to grow crops in areas they are not now compatible with, and to create varieties with exciting properties including broader insect and disease resistance, is certainly the up side of the technology.

But, like many things, in the wrong hands GMO could create new problems as well.

The Blacklist episode was only a story, at least for now, but we do need to make sure it does not become something much more real.

That does not mean turning away from GMO technology, but it does mean industry and government diligence is essential moving forward.

Farms remain Tory blue

By Murray Mandryk Someone engaged in a fascinating exercise on election night last week.

Transposed over top the results of Canada’s 42nd electoral map the agricultural land in this country.

With the exception of a few spots of red in Southern Ontario and the very Liberal red of the Maritimes, every riding that was predominately agriculture was painted Conservative blue.

It was particularly striking on the prairies where the blue in Manitoba and Saskatchewan was clearly outlined by the orange of the boreal forest line, as NDP candidates laid claim to the massive northern ridings in both provinces. This included former Conservative MP Rob Clarke’s DesnetheMissinippi-Churchill River seat.

But what was even more telling is that when you zoomed in on the online map, the flecks of orange and red manifest into NDP and Liberal seats urban major centres like Edmonton, Saskatoon, Winnipeg, Regina and even Calgary.

Yes, even in home of the executive towers of the oil companies, there are now Liberals.

But where tractors roam, you only find Tory blue.

Of course, this will come as absolutely no surprise to anyone in places like rural Saskatchewan.

EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES Office Assistant Required Town of Carlyle invites applications for the position of office assistant, to start immediately. Computer skills, good public relations skills, and the ability to learn quickly and work independently would be definite assets to this position.

Applicants should submit a detailed resume, complete with a cover letter including three references, to:

In Saskatchewan, the overall federal and provincial election results have not always been consistent.

For example, since just prior to the John Diefenbaker years, “conservative” candidates (be they Progressive Conservative, Reform, Canadian Alliance or Conservative) have represented the majority of MPs we’ve sent to Ottawa in 38 of the last 58 years.

With Saskatchewan electing 10 Conservatives out of its 14 seats, you can now project that will be 42 out of 62 years.

However, in the last six decades, we’ve seen the CCF or NDP form government in 34 of those years.

That said, what has been consistency in rural Saskatchewan whether they be provincial or federal ridings, rural folk have elected conservative candidates for a long, long time.

Every provincial riding is represented by a Saskatchewan Party MLA. Their wins four years were decisive, garnering between 50- and 80 per cent of the popular vote.

And last week’s election in Saskatchewan showed the continuation of that trend. That red Liberal wave might have swept the rest of the country, giving Justin Trudeau’s party the majority of seats in all but Alberta and Saskatchewan.

But rural Saskatchewan remained solidly blue: In Battlefords-Lloydminster, Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz captured nearly two-thirds of the vote, finishing 14,500 votes ahead of both the Liberal and New Democrat.

In Cypress Hills-Grasslands, veteran David Anderson finished 19,000 votes ahead of Liberal

Parenting Tips from Regional Kids First

- Nightmares

Nightmares are very real and very scary for children. It can be even scarier for parents to know what exactly they should do when their child is having a bad dream or wakes up very upset from a bad dream.

Nightmares are bad dreams that will typically occur towards the morning. Children may often wake up feeling scared or upset. These bad dreams can occur because of an upsetting previous day or for no obvious reason at all.

Nightmares are most common in children between the ages of 3-5 years old. Generally, if your child wakes up from a nightmare, they will settle quickly as soon as you appear.

Huguette Lutz, Chief Administrative Officer Town of Carlyle, Box 10 Carlyle, SK S0C 0R0 Email: towncarlyle@saskel.net Fax: 306-453-6380

If your child says they have the same bad dream over and over again, this may be a sign of stress or emotional upset. To help prevent this, you can talk with your child during the day and ask them what is bothering them. What are they worrying about?

Continued talk and discussion about daily events and activities may provide a good night’s sleep.

As parents, what can we do? ● Help your child feel safe ● Develop a bedtime routine ● Listen to your child ● Help your child relax ● Leave a light on

In Souris-Moose Mountain, new Conservative Robert Kitchen had the biggest margin of victory, 21,000 votes ahead of New Democrat Vicky O’Dell.

In Yorkton-Melville, new Conservative MP Cathy Wagantall garnered 60-per-cent of the vote.

In Carlton Trail-Eagle Creek, Kelly Block also doubled the combined vote on her political rivals.

In Moose Jaw-Lake Centre-Lanigan, veteran Tom Lukiwski managed to top his nearest rival by 9,000plus votes.

And the closest thing to a squeaker in rural Saskatchewan was Randy Hoback’s nearly 9,000vote win over former NDP MLA Lon Borgerson.

So the question now becomes, how will rural Saskatchewan, and rural Canada, for that matter. fare without government representations.

Well, maybe not as poorly as one suspects.

Trudeau has shown no eagerness to cut programs, suggesting he would run deficits instead.

That should make agriculture programs safe, as there seems no compelling reason to vindictive.

Nor has Trudeau expressed any interest in returning the gun register or the Canadian Wheat Board.

And while the Liberals are no less tied to the railways than the Conservatives were, their opposition rhetoric suggests a willingness to get tougher to ensure Western grain gets moved.

What rural Saskatchewan does lose, however, is that closer to government through direct federal representation.

How that plays out is anyone’s guess, but most guess that it won’t be very positive.

Fewer injuries and fatalities on Saskatchewan roads Thanks to Safer Driving

by Saskatchewan Motorists Safer driving has led to 19 per cent fewer fatalities and 18 per cent fewer injuries in the first year of tougher traffic safety laws, according to preliminary numbers from SGI. The numbers are for the year-long period July 1, 2014-June 30, 2015.

Traffic law changes in Saskatchewan took effect June 27, 2014 as a result of recommendations made by the all-party Special Committee on Traffic Safety.

“Early numbers indicate your safe driving has saved 30 lives and prevented more than 1,200 injuries,” Minister responsible for Saskatchewan Government Insurance (SGI) Don McMorris said.

“Way to go, Saskatchewan! Thank you to everyone who changed their driving behaviour for the better, helping us reach our 2015 goal. There is still work to be done so I encourage everyone to keep up your safe driving habits because even one preventable injury or death is too many.”

The Saskatchewan Road Safety Challenge, a province-wide multi-media awareness campaign with a slogan of “We can drive better,” was launched in May 2014, to complement traffic safety law changes. At the time, traffic fatalities and injuries in Saskatchewan were trending up, and government took action to reverse the trend. The goal of the Road Safety Challenge is a 10 per cent reduction in fatalities and injuries in the province

by Saskatchewan Day 2015, and a 20 per cent reduction by Saskatchewan Day 2017.

On average, 158 people were killed and nearly 6,900 people were injured in traffic collisions each year in Saskatchewan prior to implementation of the new traffic laws.* Although SGI anticipates the numbers will increase slightly, for the year-

long period of July 1, 2014-June 30, 2015 there have been 128 fatalities and about 5,600 injuries reported as of October 1, 2015 – 19 per cent fewer fatalities and 18 per cent fewer injuries.** “It’s very encouraging to see fewer fatalities and injuries, but we all need to maintain safe driving habits and learn new ones and ongoing education, awareness and enforcement will help,” McMorris said. “We can drive better and make our roads safer for everyone. At the end of the day, we all want to make it to our destination, or home to our families, safe and sound.”

The Special Committee on Traffic Safety was formed by government in 2013 to address the high rate of injuries and deaths on Saskatchewan’s roads. Law changes focused on tougher penalties for high-risk driving offences, such as impaired driving, distracted driving and speeding. The committee also recommended a stronger focus on traffic safety awareness and education activities. Preliminary data for the year following implementation of the recommendations shows fewer people are being killed and injured in impaired driving, distracted driving and speedrelated collisions. The number of impaired driving roadside suspensions and unauthorized driver vehicle seizures has also gone down.

For more information on the Road Safety Challenge and traffic law changes, visit SGI’s website at www.sgi.sk.ca.

Drivers are encouraged to share their safe driving behaviour changes and ideas on Facebook and Twitter using the hashtag #wecandrivebetter. * Based on the four-year average from July 1,
